Calories
Approx: 230–250 kcal per serving (2 pancakes)Ingredients
1 cup all-purpose flour2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice (or cinnamon + nutmeg + ginger mix)
¼ teaspoon salt
¾ cup milk (or almond milk)
½ cup pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
1 large egg
2 tablespoons melted butter (or coconut oil)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1: Mix dry ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, pumpkin spice, and salt.
(This keeps your pancakes fluffy and light.)
Step 2: Prepare wet mix
In another bowl, whisk milk, pumpkin puree, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
(Make sure the butter isn’t too hot or it’ll cook the egg.)
Step 3: Combine gently
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir slowly — just until combined.
(A few small lumps are okay! Over-mixing makes pancakes dense.)
Step 4: Cook the pancakes
Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it.
Pour ¼ cup batter for each pancake.
Cook until bubbles form on top (about 2 minutes), then flip and cook 1–2 minutes more until golden brown.
Step 5: Serve warm
Stack pancakes high and top with maple syrup, a pat of butter, or whipped cream.
For a festive twist, add chopped pecans or drizzle with caramel sauce.
Helpful Tips
Use real pumpkin puree, not pie filling (it’s sweetened and spiced).
Want them extra fluffy? Let the batter rest for 5–7 minutes before cooking.
Keep cooked pancakes warm in a 200°F (93°C) oven while making the rest.
Make ahead and freeze — just reheat in a toaster or microwave!
